The card was purchased to replace a 1060. It is used in an office environment and I am completely satisfied. The screen resolution it works on is 3440x1440 (2K ultra-wide). In office applications that I work with, as well as in viewing videos from YouTube, the card is completely silent as its fans do not work. After years, I was tempted to start gaming. I tried The Last of Us and was amazed. At a resolution of 3440x1440 and all graphics set to Ultra, the card averages around 45 frames, and in some demanding areas, I saw as low as 31 frames, but it didn't bother me at all. It didn't freeze anywhere and the overall gaming experience was smooth. Of course, the fans were running at full speed, but their noise is not bothersome and it didn't bother me at all. The 16 GB of VRAM is a one-way street for it to be able to withstand future demands, as the game required 9738 GB, so I believe the version with 8 GB cannot cope with future demanding games. In summary, I have to say that it is completely silent in an office environment and you can comfortably play games with a consistent 60 frames as long as you lower the graphics a bit. As for the size, it takes up 2 slots, but it is not huge and fits comfortably in the Fractal Define R6 that I have. I am very satisfied, and now that I see the price dropping, it is even more worth it.
